Kothapalle mandal

Kothapalle mandal is an administrative subdivision in Kakinada District that encompasses 16 villages spread across roughly 108 square kilometers. A network of roads connects these villages to each other and to the nearby town of Pithapuram.

This administrative division originated from traditional regional boundaries in East Godavari before being assigned to the newly established Kakinada District during territorial reorganization in 2022. The shift reflected a broader restructuring of administrative divisions across Andhra Pradesh.

The mandal's communities maintain strong local governance through village councils that handle everyday matters and local affairs. These councils shape how residents organize social and administrative life within their settlements.

This mandal is located at coordinates 17.087°N 82.319°E and is accessible through roads connecting to nearby Pithapuram and surrounding areas. Travelers should prepare for rural infrastructure and local conditions typical of farming communities in the region.

This mandal maintains an exceptionally balanced gender ratio of roughly 997 females per 1000 males across its population. Such demographic balance is notable and sets it apart from many other regions in India where gender ratios often differ significantly.
